Definitions
- the present invention relates to sensors for measuring the absolute length of a gap in a Fabry-Perot interferometer, and more particularly to a Fabry-Perot sensor that provides a more intense signal.
- ⁇ 875182: ⁇ light reflected by the interferometer is captured by the fiber.
- the light delivery fiber is not precisely centered on the ball lens axis or if the interferometer is not precisely perpendicular to the axis of the incident light transmitted by the ball lens, then the reflected light from the diaphragm does not re-enter the fiber because the reflected light spot that is re-imaged by the ball lens is not centered on the end of the input fiber.
- the results from the Fabry-Perot interferometer-based sensor are compromised.
- a Fabry-Perot interferometer-based sensor with a ball lens and alignment scheme that reflects high intensity light signals would provide benefits such as improved power budget, improved signal to noise ratio, and would be welcomed by the industry.
- the present application discloses a sensor assembly that comprises an optical fiber having an optical axis, a lens in optical communication with the optical fiber, the lens having an optical axis and the lens capable of transmitting a beam of light, a reflective surface, the reflective surface spaced from the lens such that the beam of light transmitted from the lens is capable of reflecting from the reflective surface back to the lens, and an alignment device capable of aligning the beam of light transmitted from the lens substantially perpendicular with the reflective surface.

- Figure 10 shows a cross-section drawing of ball and socket alignment device of an optical fiber with fused ball lens.
- FIG. IA An embodiment of a Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor 10 is shown in FIG. IA. In this embodiment, a wedge shaped window assembly 15 is used rather than a plane-parallel window as an alignment device.
- the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor 10 comprises a transducer body 11, a ferrule 20, an optical fiber 25 having an optical fiber axis 27, a lens 30 having a lens optical axis 32, and a Fabry-Perot sensor 40.
- a ball lens being shown in FIG. 1, any sort of lens that focuses and collimates light can be used, e.g., a graded index lens or a ball lens.
- the Fabry-Perot sensor 40 comprises a wedge shaped window assembly 15 and a diaphragm 42 having an optical axis 45 and a reflective surface 49.
- the wedge shaped window assembly 15 comprises one surface 52 that serves as the first partially reflector in a Fabry-Perot interferometer where the window assembly 15 is located between the lens 30 and a second reflector 49 in the Fabry-Perot interferometer, which allows for proper operation of the invention with long gaps. Rotation of the
- ⁇ 875182: ⁇ wedge-shaped window assembly 15 causes a change in the angle of refraction into and out of the window assembly 15 until the window assembly 15 is in the precise rotational location where the column or beam of light transmitted from the lens 30, is perpendicular to the first reflective surface 52 on the window assembly 15. Additionally, the lens optical axis 32 is perpendicular to the surface 49 of the diaphragm 42, as well as the optical axis 27 of the optical fiber 25 being perpendicular to the first reflective surface 52 of the window assembly 15 and the surface 49 of the diaphragm 42.
- the window surfaces 51, 52 can be maintained parallel to each other and parallel to the second reflector surface 49 in the Fabry-Perot sensor. Plane- parallel windows are easier to manufacture.
- the alignment device comprises a wedge-shaped spacer 61 located between the lens and the reflective surface as shown in FIG. IB. Accordingly, to provide the angle tuning, the wedge- shaped spacer 61 is inserted until the column or beam of light transmitted from the lens 30, is perpendicular to the reflective surface on the diaphragm. Spacers 61 with different wedge angles can be matched to different transducer bodies to correct for variation in manufacturing tolerances of the transducer bodies and to optimize light transmission.
- the alignment device comprises a surface 213 of the transducer body 211 that mates with the window assembly 215 that is machined at
- the window assembly 215 does not need to be rotated to bring the window 215 into precise alignment with the transducer 211. It is simply attached to the transducer body 211 at any rotational position.
- the transducer body 211 is machined at a predetermined angle to produce the desired tilt angle of the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor.
- the alignment device comprises the transducer body 211 having its end surface or face 213 machined at an angle relative to its axis to align the beam of light transmitted from the lens perpendicular with the reflective surface 249 of the diaphragm.
- the desired tilt angle of the transducer body 211 is also when a light beam transmitted from the ball lens 230 is perpendicular to the end face 213 of the transducer body 211. This ensures the light beam is perpendicular to the diaphragm surface 249, as shown in FIG. 2.
- This approach can also be used even when there is no ball lens and no window, to correct for any misalignment of the light beam with the transducer body and second reflector of the Fabry-Perot sensor, i.e. the diaphragm surface.
- the method for pointing the light beam to achieve perpendicularity with the diaphragm is to use a metal ball-and-socket assembly shown in Figure 10.
- the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor 1000 comprises a ferrule 1020, an optical fiber 1025, a lens 1030, a Fabry-Perot sensor 1040, and an alignment device.
- the alignment device comprises a body 1060 having a socket 1065, and a ball 1070.
- the Fabry-Perot sensor 1040 comprises a window assembly 1015 and a diaphragm 1042.
- the window assembly 1015 comprises one surface 1052 that serves as the first reflector in a Fabry-Perot interferometer where the window 1015 is between the lens 1030 and a second
- the window assembly 1015 also includes another surface 1051 parallel to the surface 1052.
- the ball 1070 can be a metal ball, but is not limited to such. It can be of any material.
- the ball 1070 is rotatably attached in the socket 1065.
- Held inside the metal ball 1070 is the ferrule 1020 that holds the optical fiber 1025 and lens 1030.
- the metal ball 1070 can be rotated in its mating socket 1065 through two degrees of freedom about the center-of-rotation 1072, as shown by the arrow.
- a 2mm diameter ball lens that is configured according to the drawing in Figure 3 has the design parameters presented in Table 1.
- the tilt angle is an input parameter to the ray trace.
- the same tilt angle is applied to each window surface C and D and the reflector E.
- Figure 4 shows what happens if the fiber de-center remains 0.05mm and the tilt angle is set to 0.
- the reflected rays miss the end of the fiber. Compare Figure 4 with Figure 3, where the reflected rays re-enter the fiber.
- the object and image size in Figure 3 is roughly .065mm (total spot size, not rms).
- the size of the image (reflected spot) is roughly .115mm and is not centered about the object (fiber end).
- Figures 1 and 2 A light delivery fiber and a ball lens are not attached to one another.
- the non-attached case results in two unwanted reflective surfaces (the fiber end and the ball lens input surface) that could interfere with the desired signal from the Fabry-Perot sensor.
- the ball lens 1030 is attached to the optical fiber 1025. More specifically, the ball lens 1030 is fused and centered on the end of the optical fiber 1025 minimizing the de-centering problem and eliminating two unwanted reflective surfaces.
- a ball lens is fused to the silica optical fiber by heating the end of the fiber to the melting point.
- the ball lens 1030 can be bonded to the optical fiber 1025 using an adhesive.
- the typical diameter of the ball lens formed in this manner is 340 ⁇ m.
- An additional way to improve the performance of the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor is to machine a feature (such as a circular groove) into the diaphragm that causes the surface of the diaphragm to translate without bending as the diaphragm deflects.
- This feature could be configured as a mesa 500 (which is the circular groove cut into the diaphragm substantially surrounding the flat mesa reflective surface of the diaphragm), a plug 600, or a bellows 700 as depicted in Figures 5, 6, and 7, respectively.
- the mesa diaphragm 500 includes a circular groove 510 cut therein.
- the circular groove 510 surrounds the reflective surface 549 of the diaphragm 500.
- Another way to improve the performance of the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor 10 is to attach a glass plate and/or dielectric coating 49 to the surface of
- ⁇ 875182: ⁇ 10 the diaphragm 42 that allows the reflectance of the diaphragm 42 to be optimized and to remain uniform with time and temperature.
- the performance of the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor could be improved by machining a concave spherical depression 810 as depicted in Figure 8 in the center of the diaphragm 800 to provide modal control of the Fabry- Perot gap.
- the depth of the spherical depression must be less than the minimum gap that is to be measured with the Fabry-Perot sensor.
- the features of the second reflector in the Fabry-Perot interferometer based sensor combine to enable a transducer head 900 to be fabricated that is very short and very small in diameter.
- the small size allows the transducer head 900 to be placed on then end of a flexible probe 910 for use in locations where space and access are very limited, forming a flexible transducer.
- Combustor baskets in Siemens Westinghouse turbines contain J-tubes used to examine the combustor basket with a horoscope.
- a flexible transducer may be installed in this location but there are physical limitations to the size of the transducer head and the pigtail assembly that contains the leads. It is straightforward to design and build a fiber optic transducer that fits within the size envelope defined by the gas turbine combustor basket J-tube. One design is shown in Figure 9. The size constraints include the diameter and length of the transducer and the flexibility of the pigtail assembly that must be pressure sealed.
